Shadow Resources Minister Susan McDonald says the government should use “technology, not taxes” to reduce emissions.

“Well, the Coalition introduced a safeguards mechanism which allowed companies to reduce emissions using technology, not taxes,” she told Sky News host James Morrow.

“That has been a very successful policy, we reduced emissions as fast, if not faster than, most other economies in the world. “But at the same time- this is the important part, maintaining productivity and maintaining profitability for these businesses that employ Australians.”

Susan MacDonald shouldn't be in politics. She looks better either as a piece of french fries or a chicken nugget in good old Scottish restaurant down the road.
